Analysis of some recent and relatively accurate data on the activity of carbon in ferrite indicates that the true carbon–carbon pairwise interaction energy ω is finite and positive (corresponding to a repulsive interaction). The significance of ω terms in various thermodynamic models of interstitial solutions is also considered.
